This is a little off-track, but I just had an idea about
the "XP-growth" problem. How about assigning monk
titles based on an XP curve for all levels above scribe (or
some other arbitrary level). (I made up the percentile
numbers, just using them for example)
Level | Percentile |
saint | %99.9 |
pontiff | %99 |
bishop | %95 |
abbot | %90 |
friar | %75 |
monk | %50 |
This has the downside that people could go down levels
while still gaining XP. Of course, it also punishes
high level monks for not contributing by dropping them back.
But it does keep everything in proportion,
preventing us from having a site where everyone is a saint if
they hang out long enough.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
